Most of the motherboards out seem to have four slots for DDR ram. I have a board that supports 4 slots of DDR PC3200. Right now I have 1gig running in dual channel (2 x 512), but I need a lot more ram for some work-related programs I run that will easily use over 1gig. I am either going to buy 2 sticks of 512 or 2 sticks of 1gig. I have heard that in a lot of these AMD boards if you use all four slots it will reduce the rating from PC3200 to PC2700 and thus reduce performance. Is this problem caused by having 4gigs of memory (the maximum allowed) or is it caused by simply filling up all four slots regardless of the amount of total memory?
